Can I apply for FAFSA as a sophomore in college next year?

Question

I didn't apply for FAFSA aid this year (figured I wouldn't get anything since my parents make about $110k a year), and I kind of regret doing so. My parents also felt uncomfortable about filling out all of the personal information. I was planning to file a FAFSA next year just incase, though, and I was wondering if you can file for a FAFSA as a college sophomore? Is the FAFSA a "by the year" thing or is it for four years?

Answer 1

Well if your parents make $110k a year, I really doubt that you will get any aid but you can still try. Assuming you have a scholarship, it's only like a dime a dollar to your parents. Unless you have a low gpa or your parents are greedy I don't know.

Answer 2

it is by the year so - yes u can

Answer 3

Yes you apply by the year.  When you and your parents do their taxes for 2008 you need to do your fafsa as well.  (Feb/March of 2009).  This will be effective for the 2009-2010 school year.

You will likely be offered Unsubsidized Stafford Loans.
